Updated code won't open on linux #134

Open rimbaum opened 9 years ago

rimbaum commented 9 years ago

I did a git pull to get the most recent code updates, and it left my pesterchum unable to open. I ran it in a terminal to see what was going on, and this is the log I got:

becca@skaianet:~/.pesterchum$ python pesterchum.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "pesterchum.py", line 5, in import version File "/home/becca/.pesterchum/version.py", line 1, in import urllib.request, urllib.parse, urllib.error ImportError: No module named request

The new codebase is migrating to python3. Try python3 pesterchum.py

Different error this time.

becca@skaianet:~/.pesterchum$ python3 pesterchum.py ERROR: The following modules are required for Pesterchum to run and are missing on your system:

This is despite me installing the packages python-pyqt5 and pyqt5-dev on debian.

It's possible that it didn't install PyQt5 for Python 3 -- I'm not sure if there's a debian package specifically for that, but since you have pyqt5-dev installed, I think you'll be able to install PyQt5 for Python 3 manually.

Okay, so after fiddling around, the debian packages required to run the new code are:

python3-pyqt5.qtmultimedia python3-pyqt5

EDIT: Confirmed that these two packages and their dependencies will get the new code working on both debian and ubuntu, along with the "python3 pesterchum.py" command.
